Allocator
---------
By default Redis compiles and links against jemalloc under Linux, since
glibc malloc() has memory fragmentation problems.
To force a libc malloc() build use:
make FORCE_LIBC_MALLOC=yes
In all the other non Linux systems the libc malloc() is used by default.
On Mac OS X you can force a jemalloc based build using the following:
make USE_JEMALLOC=yes

If you want to see a more verbose output use the following:
make V=1
